1985–1997 Ford F-350 4x4 Panhard (Track) Bar Brackets

Available Heights: Stock, 2", 3", and 4" Drop

Heavy-Duty Fabricated Steel | MIG Welded | Made in USA

Product Description

Upgrade or replace your factory Ford track bar bracket with a heavy-duty fabricated bracket from Sky’s Offroad Design.

Designed for 1985–1997 Ford F-350 4x4 trucks equipped with a solid front axle, these panhard (track) bar brackets provide mounting options for factory-height suspension and lifted applications.

Manufactured from 1/4" steel plate, CNC press-brake formed, and MIG welded for strength and durability, our brackets are built to handle demanding on-road and off-road use.

Choose from four bracket configurations to help maintain proper track bar and steering geometry for your suspension setup.

Important Suspension & Steering Geometry Information

Select the bracket drop that matches your suspension configuration.

We do not recommend using a track bar drop bracket on a truck with a suspension height more than 2" above or below the bracket's intended application.

For example, a 4" drop bracket should not be used on a truck with 7" of lift.

For suspension lifts exceeding 6", we recommend upgrading to our crossover track bar and steering system:

Using the crossover panhard and crossover steering kits together helps achieve improved steering and suspension geometry on taller lifts.

Why We Don't Offer Larger Drop Brackets

At Sky’s Offroad Design, we prioritize structural integrity and steering geometry.

Our experience has shown that excessively long track bar drop brackets can place increased leverage on the factory engine cradle, potentially loosening the cradle or causing cracks between mounting bolt holes.

Rather than extending the bracket farther downward, we recommend a properly configured crossover steering and panhard system for taller suspension lifts.

What's Included

  • One fabricated Ford panhard (track) bar bracket in the selected height

  • 1/2" Grade 8 flange-bolt mounting hardware

Available Options: Stock Height | 2" Drop | 3" Drop | 4" Drop
